Properties
The turn this scene ended at
an expression or method that evaluates to something other than nil when you want the scene to end
Flag to show whether this scene has ever happened.
A user defined flag showing how the scene ended
Is this scene currently taking place? (Game code should treat this as read-only)
Flag (for use with SceneTopic extension): do we want to trigger a SceneTopic response from every actor the player char can talk to, or only the first one we find? By default we assume we want a response from only one actor. Note that the Actor notificationOrder property can be defined so that we can select which Actor this will be (the one with the lowest notificationOrder). [SCENETOPIC EXTENSION]
Normally a scene will only occur once. Set recurring to true if you want the scene to start again every time its startsWhen condition is true.
The turn this scene started at
An expression or method that evaluates to true when you want the scene to start
The numbter of times this scene has happened.
Methods
This method is called on every active Scene just after an action has taken place. By default we do nothing here.
This method is called on every active Scene just before an action is about to take place. By default we do nothing here.
Routine to execute every turn this scene is in progress.
The method executed when this Scene ends. Game code should normally override whenStarting() rather than this method.
